Yesterday was my sister Anna’s wedding.
It was a beautiful, nourishing, and wildly fun celebration with family and friends.
I officiated the wedding ceremony; I may soon share some or all of my speech—let’s see.
A couple days before the wedding, I recorded the following video…
It’s kind of a general life update, providing a rich picture of my current process.
I talk about:
Unison festival
Entheogenic healing with mushrooms and MDMA
Heart-opening practices
Tempering/taming the primordial dragon/kundalini energy erupting through me this year
Seeing aspects of the immature/shadow masculine more clearly within myself, and bringing these aspects into the light of loving presence to transfigure them
Physical New Earth communities and the calling to live ongoingly in New Earth environments
My upcoming Presence of God retreat in Mexico in November
The feelings I was feeling right before my sister’s wedding
This is a potent video that I feel really captures the ‘post-festival glow’ I have been emanating after some truly deep healing breakthroughs at Unison Festival.
Feel welcome to reply to this email, or comment on Substack or YouTube with any reflections or questions that arise as you watch the video. I’d love to hear from you.
As I shared the other day, the ‘early bird’ registration period for Presence of God now ends October 1st.
I believe my partner Tanja is also extending her ‘early bird’ period till October 1st for her retreat, Women Rising, which will take place right after Presence of God. If you are a visionary woman and would like information on Tanja’s retreat, feel welcome to reach out and ask.
If you have any feedback or questions for me about my upcoming Presence of God retreat, I’d sincerely love to hear from you.
In particular, if you have felt the call and are considering taking the leap and applying, I’d love to hear from you: What factors are you considering? What, if anything, is holding you back?
Any feedback you all can provide would be truly invaluable for me at this juncture. Thank you.
This retreat is a portal that will change the course of people’s lives.
I feel the truth of that statement pulsing deeply within my heart.
If you have felt the call to ayahuasca and/or Bufo alvarius…
If you have felt the call to meet me in the physical and experience deeper levels of my work…
This is a powerful opportunity for you.
If you are ready for a deep rebirth into a new vision of yourself and your life…
Heartfelt Love for You,
Jordan
